Cutting To The Chase

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Feb 15, 2004

Advent 6: The Resurrection is proof that Jesus’ work on the Cross was exactly what was needed to restore a sinful humanity to God.

There are people that have the absolutely uncanny ability to zero in on a problem. With laser-like precision, they can identify what’s going on and cut to the chase. If protests are raised, they can lay waste all arguments to the contrary, take no prisoners and accept no compromises as they ferret ...read more

Contributed by Matthew Blau on Apr 3, 2008

When Peter said these words. It cut to the hearts of those who heard. Will they cut to yours too?

Cut to the Heart Have you ever talked to someone who just wasn’t listening. You feel as though you are talking to a wall, unmoved and uncaring. Or even worse have you been heard and then ignored.

Cutting Corners With Untempered Mortar

Contributed by Bob Phillips on May 29, 2014

Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B: "When In Doubt, Cut It Out.”

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 15, 2024

It is not hyperbole to say that it is better to enter heaven maimed [one-armed, one-footed, and one-eyed] than to enter hell whole. That is literally true.

“When Jesus exaggerated” is a book title, and there are countless articles on how Jesus uses exaggeration and hyperbole for effect, like we hear this Sunday; to literally cut off your hand or foot or gouge-out your eyes because then you won’t sin with them.1 However, “it is not hyperbole to say ...read more

Regaining Your Cutting Edge

Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 14, 2017

A prophet lost his axhead/ cutting edge and needed to recover it. It was the key to his growth. Problem was, it was borrowed: he was trying to overcome his hindrances to growth by a borrowed anointing! A special stick altered its properties. Find out why.

Life has away of causing us to lose our cutting edge.

Cut-Er-Loose

Contributed by Ron Hicks on Aug 13, 2007

There is one challenge that not many are willing to take on, and that is to conquer the sin in their lives. I assure you that it is challenging, adventurous, dangerous, and certainly rewarding.

They will also trek into the wilderness, over deserts, sail the oceans in small boats, and float around the world in balloons, and so on. I suppose to prove manhood or the strength of womanhood.

Cutting Through The Legalese Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 17, 2003

We look for loopholes in what God has called us to do, but the Bible calls us to a proactive lifestyle, it makes us face who we really are, and it calls us to accountability.

Some of us love to take the simple and make it complex. Some of us thrive on taking perfectly obvious matters and making them as obscure as possible. My neighbor’s car has on it a bumper sticker that says, “Eschew obfuscation”. After about a half-hour with the dictionary, I found out that means, ...read more
